The 2nd Annual International Reggae Auction is set to launch Feb 1 and continues through Reggae Month with a special auction event to close the month-long charity campaign on February 28. This year, we are especially pleased to include artwork from Jamaican artist Astro Saulter in the items up for bid. Proceeds from the sale of the work by Mr Saulter, who has cerebral palsy, will support Mr Saulter's healthcare expenses.
Watch the video below to learn more about Mr Saulter and stay tuned for the details about the art up for bid...
According to the Huffington Post, "The gifted creative crafts colorful and imaginative forms from fantastical portraits to exotic birds using tools like Inkscape and EZ-Keys". In the video below Saulter says, “I take a lot of pride and enthusiasm in imagining and creating new art all the time. No matter who you are or where you come from even if you have a disability, if you have a dream or a vision of something that you really want to do in life you must face it and challenge that goal head on.”
